You know how canaries were historically brought into coal mines, because if the mine was full of carbon monoxide the canary would die first and the miners would be able to escape before they died too?
I just found the greatest thing.
This is a canary resuscitator.
When the miners notice the canary getting sick with carbon monoxide poisoning, they can close that circular hatch so no more gas gets into the canary cage, and open the valve on that oxygen tank to keep the canary breathing. In other words, they made a spacesuit for birds.
By immediately giving the canary access to clean air, the miners can save it from the poison. The bird lives. To be clear, this is not for economic purposes, this was specifically created because the miners felt bad and wanted to save the bird.
Isn’t that just the perfect demonstration of what humans are like? We started sacrificing small creatures to save ourselves, and then felt bad and spent our valuable resources on saving the critters too. Because yeah the canary was the only way to test for CO, but it’s a living creature too, dammit!
In the swirling chaos of the Battle of Wolf 359, where the Federation’s fleet clashed with the relentless Borg cube, hope was a scarce commodity. The starships, valiant as they were, found themselves outmatched by the Borg’s superior firepower and seemingly impenetrable defenses.
It was then that a peculiar blue box, the TARDIS, materialized amidst the debris of fallen ships. The Doctor stepped out, sonic screwdriver in hand, a determined glint in his eyes. He was no stranger to impossible odds, and the plight of the Federation moved him.
The Doctor quickly assessed the situation and devised a plan. He knew the Borg’s strength lay in their collective consciousness. If he could introduce a paradox, something the Borg couldn’t assimilate or understand, it could create a moment of vulnerability.
With the help of a small team of Starfleet officers who beamed aboard the TARDIS, The Doctor synchronized the ship’s time vortex manipulator with the Borg’s transwarp conduit. As the TARDIS’ engines whirred and the Borg cube began to assimilate the signal, The Doctor initiated the paradox—a message of individuality broadcasted on a frequency only the Borg could perceive.
The message spread like wildfire through the Borg’s collective mind, each drone suddenly overwhelmed with a sense of self. Confusion rippled through the cube as drones hesitated, their unified purpose faltering.
Seizing the moment, the Federation fleet unleashed all they had. The Borg, distracted by the existential crisis within, could not defend themselves effectively. The cube sustained critical damage and, in a blinding explosion, was destroyed.
The Doctor, having saved the Federation from certain defeat, received gratitude from admirals and ensigns alike. But he didn’t stay for the celebrations; his work there was done. With a smile and a wave, he disappeared into the TARDIS, off to his next adventure across time and space.
The Battle of Wolf 359 would be remembered not just as a close call with annihilation, but as the day The Doctor, a mysterious hero from another universe, came to the rescue of the United Federation of Planets.
